Fargesia jiuzhaigou '7' exhibits another unique spectrum of coloured canes. New canes emerge green, but slowly age to yellow and dark burgundy. This combination of light and dark culms creates a very vibrant contrast. This cultivar has the tendency to grow in a tighter clumping habit and grows the shortest of the jiuzhaigou family.

Very cold hardy here in the Pacific Northwest and well suited for the outdoor garden or pot. Although it can be grown in full sun, morning sun and afternoon shade will give the best coloration on the culms. Currently a very rare cultivar of jiuzhaigou.
